Have you tried being yourself?


Vvcc

>>26036967
you still have time, the first day usually everyone is nervous and just mingle a little

but it'll take 1-2 weeks before social groups are formed, so be quick about it

This is my EXACT fear for next year, op. Good luck for the next days.

How do you even make friends in community college

>>26036967
Just give it up faggot, at least be social with your kind of people, look up D&D meet ups fucking MTG!YUGIOH or anime shit you know the shit that makes you beta, hang out with them at least its something

>>26037011
Hes already out of highschool thats when many social groups are formed hes about to drown, he still has a chance but its looking grim

social groups are formed on the first two days, you still have a chance in the next week but after that you either need a friend who introduces you into a group or you're fucked forever

first/second week? Come to a group that doesn't seem too chady, whith at least 1 person who's smoking.

Have a cigarette in your mouth
ask for a lighter
light cigarette
inhale once
make sure to give lighter back, i sometimes forget to and this is a good old red flag

how is that so hard? The lighter-trigger is the only difficult part.

step 1 don't be autistic
step 2 be clean
step 3 find someone with similar interests

Well at some point you have to man up and leave your comfort zone, or you can do the same shit you've done your entire life and have the same results. College is, short of a party where everyone is drunk as fuck, THE easiest place to meet people. Literally all you have to do most of the time is just take interest in something and be able to string two sentences together. If you're an autist anime sperg, find other autist anime spergs and shoot the shit about something.

>>26037601
You're self centered and unwilling to put in the effort to connect with other people. That's an okay way to live your life if you want to but the time will come when you lament not having connections, not having any real friends or even friendly acquaintances.

Sign up to some tabletop gaming club or animu club. I'm serious. Even if you think they're total weebs or you've never played a tabletop game, you're at least spending time with people for an hour or two.

If its a walk in kind of deal, even better, means you can just walk in and sit, may be awkward at first but they're all equally as awkward, hence why I said tabletop or animu.

If its sign ups, even better, because then they'll expect you to be there and it's less awkward than walking in.

Either way, join the nerdiest, most geekiest club.

>>26038101
Op here.

My community college doesn't have clubs

>>26037538
If someone comes back to talk to you, you keep the ball rolling, including going to them. Don't let it fizzle. It's always conversation two where it fizzles.

Stop being genetically inferior so people want to associate with you

>>26036967

I've been there. I sit in class silently assuming I'm better than everyone else, and have a delusion that people are having hostile thoughts toward me, when really I have said a word the entire semester.

Try this.
Talk to people after the first week. Just casual conversation. You don't have to be outgoing immediately.

>>26037601

I didn't go in for 2 months. I manage to force myself in now and then, but I just listen to music for the most part and attempt to help others out. But whenever I'm on my way home I feel incredibly exhausted just from some socialization and I shut myself away entirely to bitterness and hatred.

I went through two years without making a single friend at college. I made a friend in the last week of my second year who I have on steam. We're not close though.

Buckle up, OP. It's a long, miserable ride.

This. Don't judge people as 'Just a Chad' or 'Just a Stacy' just because they have social skills and you don't. Don't assume they're dumber than you and if they have lower intelligence don't assume that makes you the better person. Don't assume they're out to get you or they constantly shit talk behind your back because you fucked up once. Don't assume they're as cruel as you.

Get to know these people, some of them are pretty cool.

I wish my friend wasn't such a nice guy so I could just stop speaking to him. It would solve the problem immediately.

>>26037219
where do you robots come up with these bizarre theories?

>>26040190
bitter solitude

>>26040226
It's very strange. Like I suppose if you transfer in the middle of the year you have zero chance of making friends? Just banter with the people next to you in class, dorm neighbors, etc. Or yes, even walk up to a group of people chatting. Most people are much friendlier in a university setting, because everyone is kind of awkwark and anxious about embarking on this new experience, even if they don't appear to feel that way.

>>26037932
>College is, short of a party where everyone is drunk as fuck, THE easiest place to meet people.
What a load of bullshit. This only applies maybe if you dorm, not if you commute.

>>26040260
Sure, find another excuse to justify your failure of a social life.

>>26040260

This

also not everyone goes to a big American party school like in the movies. My big uni doesnt even have clubs that arent dead or specifically for international students.

>>26040280
But it's not an excuse?
Most people who commute go to class then straight home or to work. Especially if you go to college in the city and there is no real "campus" environment.

>>26040392
You still have classes with other human beings...I don't have the best social skills but I can make friends in class because I'm trapped with these people for a semester anyway so why not?

>>26039783
Why do you hate smash players?

>>26040421
Just because we talk in class doesn't make us friends. I made "friends" every semester and it died as soon as the semester ended. I guess that's more on my part and my own experiences.

The problem is you see these people maybe twice a week. And aside from school, they're usually busy with there own lives. It's not easy to hang out with each other when you live miles apart.

So yeah, I can understand how making friends in dorms are easy. You go to class, hang out places after and can see each other everyday since you lives a few rooms apart.

I'm in third week of classes

>>26037415
I guess this is a common thing or something. Except they knew I was a sperg, but thanks to selective mutism they never developed prominent non-neutral opinions on me.

After several years of trying to be sociable i've finally given up. I realised that i have literally no idea how social dynamics work. I'm alone and more miserable than ever.

>>26040613
You haven't lost until you've given up.

ok listen carefully OP, i'll tell you how not to fuck this up.

all it takes to make friends is just being around people and not saying anything too awkward. even if you feel like you are out of place, just stick with them. if you have no social skill, stay low-profile and don't make excessive jokes. but the really important thing, even if you are super shy and introvert, is to just ask questions, listen to other people, stay in the group. if you go to university people are mature and will accept even the shy nerds.

but if you avoid interacting with people in your classes for too long, you will stay emarginated and making friends will be close to impossible.

don't worry even if now you think you are a loser who can't say anything funny or interesting. just STAY WITH PEOPLE, you will learn.

also HIDE YOUR POWER LEVEL. don't try to stand out UNTIL YOU HAVE ACQUIRED SOCIAL SKILL. don't brag. don't make fun of others in front of other people

I want to talk to people but they're just so uninteresting and unlikable. how do I find people that aren't boring stacys? I wouldn't act on it if I knew, but fuck, how can other people put up with each other?

>>26040656
I'm white, rich, above average looks, my family is educated and successful and i live in one of the richest country in the world. I fucked everything up so bad i had to convince myself i don't give a fuck anyway, because i kept failing even though i tried and that's the most depressing, humiliating thing. At least now i can say "yeah i'm a fuckup, but i'm not even trying"

I'm in Community College, not Uni. People here ARE immature as fuck. Which is why I think it is such an issue for me.

Im not a full on robot, I'm a cyborg. I've had friends before and I've had girls into me. Dispite being virgin.

I got into University Of California Davis for fall, so maybe it will change.

>>26040750
you aren't interesting either. or, maybe i should say, you are interesting but they don't know it yet, and they are interesting but you don't know it yet. you have to try to make the conversation flow, even if it's an huge effort. refer to my post >>26040681

No it just means they're too nice to tell the beta to fuck off, and that's if you're lucky. So many still act like highschoolers and won't even pretend.

no you were right the first time. I'm the most uninteresting person I know. I don't have any hobbies or interests, I just play vidya and fuck about on /r9k/. if mommy were to take away my computer I'd just sleep all day and not know what to do.

ok it's fine. i dont have any hobbies either. you don't need them to socialize, even if they help a lot. it just means that you'll have to focus your interactions on listening and making remarks, until you get out and finally have stories to tell

what the fuck does that mean, "until you get out and finally have stories to tell?"

I don't even like girls, faggot.

How I made friends, only a small amount but still friends who actually ask me stuff and go up to talk to me and such. What I essentially did was latch myself onto someone who makes friends easier than me and then ask them all for contact details outside of school.

Did it in both college and university, they did the socializing, I was just known as their friend, end up making small talk from time to time, end up befriending them myself naturally over time, got to the point I could hang out with just them.

>>26042430
this actually works. But u gotta seperate the person somehow from its circle, else its just awkward when u try to befriend
